Eloquent Tributes TO the Sleeping
Leader of the American Pulpit.
NEW YORK, March 20--Among other
utterance5 by Rev. Robert Collyer in the
course Of his sermon to-day upon Rev.
Henry Ward Bescher, at the church OF
the Messiah, were these: "Since the
death OF Luther, 240 years ago, the death
OF no man in sacred Office mas so touched
the hearts OF nations. Though he " as 70
years OF age, no one looked upon him
az old. He was the great
leader of the American pulpit,
and no one in this age, save
the grand old man in England, had
so much enthusiasm, courage and ability
for the work he had to do. His theology
was as broad as the world Itself. 1t was
not theology bound with iron band ribs
as they would bind at Princeton and
AndoVer-that ls all well enough for those
who love such b0ndage-because
Beecher was not bound with bonds made
by mar, and because of ms noble WORK
for humanity all these years. l thank
God that he was not systematic theolo-
gian, but just the great free
reasoner, we knew him 10
be. He needed the whole republic first
for his growth, and then the whole planet
for his rlpening. He was not OF flower
pot growth. He was a plant in the great
woods. As well might they seek TO con-
fine Niagara in q flower pot. He was not
the slave OF system, but Gods free man.

The Texas Legislature Lodges a
Defiant Reporter in Jail,
AUSTIN, TEX, March 20.-About two
weeks ago the lower house OF the Legis-
lature, by vote expelled from the floor
Ii. S. Garfield, assistant editor and re-
porter for the San Antonio Daily Express,
because of continued caustic cTiti Cism of
the proceedings OF The House. Yesterday
Garfield caused the arrest of speaker
PendletOn, alleging that he unlawfully
prevented him from entering the lobby of
the House. The Speaker was taken be-
fore Justice Fritz Fegner to answer the
charge. When the House learned that
the Speaker had been arrested great in
dignation and excitement prevailed.
BOTH ARRESTED.
A Speaker pro TEN. was Immediately
elected, and resolution was adopted d.
recting the SergeSnt-at-Arms forth with to
bring Garfield and Justice Fegner before
the bar OF the House TO answer for con-
tempt in fOrcibly OBTAINING its presiding
officer. The Sergeant-at-Arms with
corps OF assistants visited the Justices
Court in haste, interrupted the proceed
ings. and brought Justice Fegner and
Garfield before the bar. The House held
a night session to discuss resolutions for
tice. Exciting scenes ensued.
CANFIELD DEFIANT.
Canfeld was permitted to make state
ment. He declared that he believed he
bad right OF access TO the press lobby, and
right to institute proceedings to test his
constitutional right. He defied the House
by closing with the statement that he
had nothing to regret, whereupon, by
vote of SO to 81, the House adopted
resolution committing Garfield to the
county Jail for fOrty-eigbt hours.
Justice Fegner was discharged after apollo
giziny. The SerKeant-at-Arms took Can
field TO the Jail, but returned at 10 O'Clock
at night and reported to the House that
the Sheriff refused to receive the prisoner
without a warrant properly issued by the
Speaker. The House thereupon author
iZed the Speaker to issue a warrant, and
Garfield spent the night in jail.

NEW "FADs" OFF FAsHION.
A sachet Powder Worn Around
the Waist OF the Dress.

the Waist OF The Dress.
NEW YORK, March ia decided In
noyatiOn is to have, between the dress
waist and the lining, sachet powder; In
fact. the whole waist OF the dress serves
as one large sachet. While this may
make the dress little heavier, and con-
sequently add to It's warmth, IL is just
what is needed for winter weather. Even
inR dresses are also treated In this way.
Violet seems TO he the faVorlte odor. The
other day attended performance OF
opera al the Metropolitan Opera House.
| noticed several young ladies took tiny
silver boxes from their pockets occa-
slonnlly and bent over them. What did
they mean? Thought they looked some
what like a dimInutive snuffbox. Can it
be posslble that the habit OF taking snutf
il TO be reviveds And by our prettiest
girls TOO; but they were not taking snutf
as they bent over their pretty silver
boxes. They were bon bonnlers, and held
either candy, sugared flag root or lovage.
Girls ell like candies, and a pretty re-
ceptacle for this luxury Is duly appreci-
ated by the dear girls that never enjoy
ANYTHING OF an entertainment where they
can't crunch candy. But these little
bonbonpiers are very useful at times.
Even bellies occasionally eat onions or
some other article OF food with an eXcep-
ti0nal odor, and caehous, or in case of
cold, troches. may be carried In these tiny
silver receptacles. They also serve as
novel and not too expensive gift TO one
another.
Young ladies are wearing genuine
scotch caps on their heads, and they are
not ouly warm aud attractive, but are
proof against the high Winds, which are
the worst things for high hats. No one
looks graceful scurrying through the
street after hat that has been rudely
torn frcm her head. The possibility OF
this is a greater argument against high
hats than all the railing against their OBJ
structing the View at the theatres.

The Government Out of Powder.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-A general
order just published by the War Depart
ment directs the diacontinuance OF the
practice OF firing morning and evening
gun at military posts, except at tue
United States Military Academy, Fort
Monroe, Va, and Fort Leaven q orth, Kan.
The reason fer the Issue Gi the order is
The fact that the supply of powder re.
naming at the close of the late war,
which has been used for the purpose OF
firing eaIutes, has been exhausted, and
the Ordnance Department ia without
funds to purchase fresh supply.
